Bought the Sony KD65XD8599 from Costco for £1499 but it has light bleed in the bottom corner and it's not really giving me the wow factor I have seen looking at other sets. It's also, slight TOO big for the room if i'm 100% honest. I will be sat exactly 8ft from the screen and I am almost having to move head left to right to see all the action. Watching Narcos in 4k on Netflix I was finding myself reading the subtitles then having to look up and left and right to see the action then look back at the subtitles. I have a 50" in the lounge already but this will go in new cinema room so want to go big so am thinking a 60" will be the sweet spot although having had the 65" in place I may regret going smaller. Its not a massive leap though 60" to 65".
I have narrowed search down to the following
Samsung UE60KS7000 - £1599 at JL with 1/2 price UHD Blu Ray player option
Samsung UE65KS8000 - £2199 at JL with 1/2 price UHD Blu Ray player option (slightly over, not sure if worth the extra for next model up and 5" extra?)
Panasonic Viera 65DX750B - £1699 at JL
I have also looked at the Panasonic DX902 58" which looks great but smaller size and screen was pretty reflective / not sure on leant back screen.
Ive seen all in the flesh and all impressive. My main concern is light bleed again as I will be watching in the dark, late at night predominantly.
Thoughts on the above, especially from owners would be most appreciated. Must be flat too as I can't stand curved panels.
